Fiction based on facts contained in Edward Fitzgerald Beale's journals,published as "THE BEALE PAPERS" in 1850.

All these claims and "zero" confirmation connecting any of it directly to the pamphlet. There's what's missing fellas, no direct connection of any kind that we can confirm. Time to go back to square one, clear out all the garbage, and start looking for some new roads to travel.

YOU start it, then...

Already have. Tat's lawyer notion is also a possibility that should be high on the list. Lawyers kept records, courts kept records. Could be something there worth discovering?

Personally, I'm going back the begining, to the copyright and actual printing of the pamphlet. Looking into other roads yet traveled.

Comparing Ward's pamphlet "THE BEALE PAPERS" with the 1850 journal of E F Beale,"THE BEALE PAPERS" would also be a good start.I only posted the most obvious parallels.
Also,who had the copy of E F Beale's journal that insired Ward's pamphlet?

6 feet down? There isn't an inexpensive way.

Don't think the treasure is 6 ft down... Just the hole is 6 ft deep... Thinking I Shud hit the top layer of rock within 2 to 3 feet.

Good luck, but I wouldn't get my hopes up and I wouldn't invest too much time in an actual hunt for something that isn't even known to exist. Either way, there is no such thing as deep "cheap" treasure hunting machine. A 2box would be your best, cheapest bet.

Just a wandering thought. Reading all the threads, does it, umm, have anyone else questioning how so many "characters" are supposedly involved and so many ways that the "items" might have found their way to an unknown spot, seem a little off?

It's like his uncle's aunt's second cousin's grand father twice removed, knew a friend of a friend who was involved.
And just thinking about it, with that many folks involved and someone didn't leave more clues/locations other then in a pamphlet or some papers?
Not one had a little to much rum one night and spilled the beans? Or a little bedroom bragging with the local wench?
Or snuck back and got themselves a taste or two or three of it?

And the transportation of such? Not one newspaper article or wash line gossip about a strange group of travelers with how many covered up wagons making their way through town. Or a riverboat or ship receiving a covered load that surely would have had guards? Those old papers published stuff like someone's dog chasing a cow, yet there isn't a single story of such a group passing through town?

Not saying it isn't true, but I'm beginning to think bigscoop might be on the right track. Other then the Vikings, unless I missed that one, it seems like just about everyone else was involved, except the folks now looking for it.

Course though I'm just a straw brained scarecrow.
Okay, back to my other post. Dang crows!

Yep, all of the things you mention leaves a pretty impossible scenario no matter which "real treasure" theory you choose to embrace.

Don't I know. They're also some pesky things sometimes.
But like you said I've had more then one time that they let me know someone or something was coming, long before I could spot em.
Got some nice venison that way.
